It's Almost Here

Fretful sleep, upset tummy, jittery.........and heck I am not even the one getting married! :) Things are about as finished as they are going to be around here for the wedding party this coming Saturday. Yes, I got some new shoes to those who asked. (big grin). A pair of Bottega Venetas..... I splurged but figured it was justifiable since I found a fabulous tunic to wear at GW... (bigger grin).

For Pink Saturday and the other fun blog parties this week, I am sharing a bit of the outdoor wedding decor. I did find some vintage honeycomb wedding bells but decided they were too fragile to use and bought new. I love honey comb decorations...don't you? The pink and white impatiens are in their glory and I wanted to keep those instead of replacing with fall flowers, so I decided to make all the pumpkins white (spray painted real pumpkins) and I did a mist of white paint on the corn stalks and added white feathers. So hopefully, we have autumn and the best of summer together. I like it! I will see you next week with photos. Have a wonderful week. Until then.....xoxo

I hope you will visit these sweet blog parties this week. Always so much inspiration and thanks always to the hostesses. :)

Everything looks lovely so far! And as one wedding planner (ME - the mother of the bride) to another, let me know how things went! What worked, what didn't work, etc. And if you feel like I do sometimes, can't wait until it is over!Blessings to the newly married couple!

Lovin all your decor and the spray painted pumkins are just fabulous. Enjoy the new shoes, and don't wear them out before Saturday.. I know I would be wearing them around the house placeing some mirrors on the floor just to look at them. Best wishes to the marrying couple.

Oh Lynn, I will be thinking of you every day up to the big one on Saturday..Stay Calm--Carry On..things will go well I'm sure. I love that you painted the pumpkins..so easy and looks so beautiful...I love the look at the corner of the fence..and the pretty birdhouse in the background on the tree...( I could imagine the birds peeking out looking for the bride to be..) oh I love a good wedding...You are going to have such a great day..Cant wait!!

Been thinking of you Lynne and the upcoming wedding. Everything will be wonderful and go off without a hitch. I'm sure it will be so very perfect. Blessings to you, your family and the Bride and Groom to be. So exciting. I'm sure it will be a wonderful Wedding! Hugs and Best Wishes to all. Marilou Now Relax!

I spotted some black cowboy boots in your shop Lynn. What size are they? I've been looking hard for some nice used ones to wear to "Once Upon a Dream" next mont in Asheville. Can't send them in the mail here to Canada, but might be able to send them to Jeanne's house in N.C. ???? I'm a size 8 wide. I have a damn bunion on top of my left foot that looks like a knuckle, lol. so they would have to be SUPER comfy. ok now on to the wedding.OMG. Everything looks AMAZING. I can just imagine the work going on for months. I know because of all the work we had to do before the girls arrived. WOW Have fun and I HOPE the weather holds out for the magical day.xoxoxoxoxo

Lynn, this looks like so much fun, and I love what you've done to prepare for the wedding. Can't wait to see everything. Take lots and lots of pics to share.

I just want to thank you for your hug today. I really needed it. I had to go to two meetings at which Adelaide was supposed to be, and it was just killer not having her there. The air was palpable with not only her loss but of Anne, our other friend who died in April. It's the love of other friends that has helped sustain all of us through this year.

Lynn...so glad you visited! It looks like you will have your hands full this week - best wishes for the bride & groom :) Love the honecomb wedding bells - darling! The white pumpkins pull together your porch...perfect for a fall wedding! Enjoy!!

Hi Lynn, Your entrance looks wonderful and I know you have everything organized and ready. Congrats to your son and new daughter-in-law and best wishes for a wonderful day. Thanks for linking to the Open House party and I hope to see pictures soon.Hugs,Sherry

Weddings are wonderful, and there is just something about a fall wedding. I just love the white pumpkins to accent the pink impatients, how very pretty, and the white honeycom bells and bow, so very romantic. Here's toasting to the bride & groom, may they be forever blessed. Hugs,Ellen

What a gorgeous spot for a wedding! Please let us see more....*winks*Lynne I would LOVE to go shopping with you too! Can't you just see us both spotting something great? We'd both look at each other...and then run like mad! Lol! We'd have to flip a coin or something *winks* Vanna

Ohhh, sooo lovely! Its going to be a beautiful day for all! And speaking of pink and pumpkins - did you see the Pink Saturday post with the pink pumpkins? :) :) :) Have a blessed day and week and WEDDING :)

Oh Lynn, by now your wedding is over, what a relief....So much work, I can't wait for all of the pictures! Big, Big bummer on the candle sticks. I always check the used ones, but never the new ones, you have probably saved me a ton of work!

Hi Lynn,It is going to be absolutely gorgeous! Love the whisp of white spray paint here and there. I picked up some Christmas honeycomb bells last year at an antique store. I hang them in my bedroom. They so remind of fun childhood Christmas's. Best of luck, congrats to the happy couple.p.s. Thanks so much for the note about your seeds. I'll e-mail you.

Lynn, first of all I say CONGRATULATIONS to winning my giveaway!!Secondly, if I EVER get remarried, you are coming to help decorate!! It turned out so beautifully and I know your son and new daughter in law loved it all. Hugs!! Jen
